Lesson Video: Properties of Cyclic Quadrilaterals

Video Transcript In this video, we will learn how to use cyclic quadrilateral properties to find missing angles and identify whether a quadrilateral is cyclic or not. We will begin by recalling what is meant by an inscribed angle. An inscribed angle is the angle made when two chords intersect on the circumference of a circle. This means that the vertex of the angle lies on the circumference. We can use our understanding of inscribed angles to define a cyclic quadrilateral. This is a four-sided polygon whose vertices are inscribed on a circle. If we consider the cyclic quadrilateral 𝐴𝐵𝐶𝐷, we can join two vertices 𝐴 and 𝐶 to the center 𝑂 in order to create two radii 𝐴𝑂 and 𝑂𝐶. We can then label the angle measures created at the center of the circle as 𝑥 degrees and 𝑦 degrees. Since angles about a point sum to 360 degrees, we have 𝑥 degrees plus 𝑦 degrees is equal to 360 degrees. The inscribed angle theorem tells us that an angle 𝜃 inscribed in a circle is half of the central angle two 𝜃 that subtends the same arc on the circle, as shown. In other words, the angle of the circumference is half the angle at the center. This means that the measure of the angle at vertex 𝐵 is a half of 𝑥 degrees and the measure of the angle at vertex 𝐷 is a half of 𝑦 degrees. We can then combine these three equations. Firstly, we have the measure of angle 𝐵 plus the measure of angle 𝐷 is equal to a half of 𝑥 degrees plus a half of 𝑦 degrees. Factoring out a half on the right-hand side gives us a ...

Inscribed (cyclic) quadrilateral

An inscribed, or cyclic, In the figure above, as you drag any of the vertices around the circle the quadrilateral will change. Note that if you drag a vertex past an adjacent one, the quadrilateral will be 'crossed'. It will have one side that crosses over another. As with all polygons, this is not regarded as a valid quadrilateral, and most theorems and properties described below do not hold for them. Interior angles In a cyclic quadrilateral, opposite pairs of interior angles are always

Lesson Explainer: Proving Cyclic Quadrilaterals

Property: Angle Measures between the Diagonals and Sides of a Cyclic Quadrilateral In a cyclic quadrilateral, the angle created by a diagonal and side is equal in measure to the angle created by the other diagonal and opposite side. This pair of angles consists of two inscribed angles that are subtended by the same arc. The converse of this theorem is also true. That is, in a given quadrilateral, if we can prove that the angles created by the diagonals are equal, then the quadrilateral is cyclic. For example, given the following quadrilateral, 𝐴 𝐵 𝐶 𝐷, if we can prove that 𝑚 ∠ 𝐷 𝐴 𝐶 = 𝑚 ∠ 𝐷 𝐵 𝐶 or 𝑚 ∠ 𝐴 𝐷 𝐵 = 𝑚 ∠ 𝐴 𝐶 𝐵, then the quadrilateral is cyclic. That is, a circle can be constructed through all four of its vertices. Note that we do not have to prove both of these pairs of angles are equal. If we just have 𝑚 ∠ 𝐷 𝐴 𝐶 = 𝑚 ∠ 𝐷 𝐵 𝐶, then we know that 𝐷 𝐶 must be an arc and 𝐴 and 𝐵 are points on the same circle. Therefore, every point lies on the same circle and it is, by definition, a cyclic quadrilateral. We can see how in a noncyclic quadrilateral, this property would not hold true. In the quadrilateral below, we can observe by eye that 𝑚 ∠ 𝐺 𝐸 𝐻 ≠ 𝑚 ∠ 𝐻 𝐹 𝐺. Answer A quadrilateral that has all four vertices inscribed in a circle is defined as a cyclic quadrilateral. We can use the inscribed angle properties to determine if a quadrilateral is cyclic, and given that we have the diagonals drawn, we can check if the angle made with a diagonal and side is equal in measure ...

Cyclic Quadrilateral

Cyclic Quadrilateral A cyclic quadrilateral is a four-sided polygon inscribed in a circle. It has the maximum area possible with the given side lengths. In other words, a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle depicts the maximum area possible with those side lengths. Let us learn more about a cyclic quadrilateral and its properties in this article. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Cyclic Quadrilateral Definition A cyclic quadrilateral means a quadrilateral that is inscribed in a The word "cyclic" is from the Greek word "kuklos", which means "circle" or "wheel". The word "quadrilateral" is derived from the ancient Latin word "Quadri", which means "four-side" or "latus". In the figure given below, ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral with a, b, c, and d as the side-lengths and p and q as the diagonals. Properties of Cyclic Quadrilateral The properties of a cyclic quadrilateral help us to identify this figure easily and to solve questions based on it. Some of the properties of a cyclic quadrilateral are given below: • In a cyclic quadrilateral, all the four vertices of the quadrilateral lie on the • The four sides of the inscribed quadrilateral are the four • The measure of an exterior angle at a vertex is equal to the opposite interior angle. • In a cyclic quadrilateral, p × q = sum of product of opposite sides, where p and q are the diagonals. • The • The perpendicular bisectors of the four sides of the cyclic quadrilateral meet at the center O. • The sum of a pair of opposite angles is 180° (supple...

Cyclic quadrilateral If all four points of a A quadrilateral PQRS is said to be cyclic quadrilateral if there exists a circle passing through all its four vertices P, Q, R and S. Let a cyclic quadrilateral be such that PQ = a, QR = b, RS = c and SP = d.
